ABSTRACT

The mouldable material contains
 (a) an aluminium fluorosilicate glass,
 (b) at least one polycarboxylic acid having a mean molecular weight of &gt; 500,
 (c) a carbonate and/or bicarbonate in an amount of at least 0.1% by weight, based on (a),
 (d) optionally a chelating agent and

 This material is particularly suitable as a bone replacement material and can be moulded to give porous mouldings.
